More quotes by Veronica Roth
Human reason can excuse any evil that is why it's so important that we don't rely on it.
Veronica Roth
I hear my heartbeat. I have been looking at him too long, but then, he has been looking back, and I feel like we are both trying to say something the other can't hear, though I could be imagining it. Too long - and now even longer, my heart even louder, his tranquil eyes swallowing me whole.
Veronica Roth
Stiff. That’s why you’re strong, get it? - Tobias Eaton
Veronica Roth
I love 'Harry Potter.' I'm a huge nerd - I would dress up if I could.
Veronica Roth
No factions? A world in which no one knows who they are or where they fit? I can't even fathom it. I imagine only chaos and isolation.
Veronica Roth
What's your name? Um... Think about it. You don't get to pick again. Tris.
Veronica Roth
You don’t believe things because they make your life better, you believe them because they’re true.
Veronica Roth
I am fed up. I am fed up with tears and weakness. But there isn't much I can do to stop them.
Veronica Roth
Eric called Al's suicide brave, and he was wrong. My mother's death was brave. I remember how calm she was, how determined. It isn't just brave that she died for me it is brave that she did it without announcing it, without hesitation, and without appearing to consider another option.
Veronica Roth
He smiles in my memory. A curled lip. Straight teeth. Light in his eyes. Laughing, teasing, more alive in memory than I m in reality. It was him or me. I chose me. But I feel dead too.
Veronica Roth
Creemos enla valentía. Creemos en tomar acciones. Creemos en la liberarnos del miedo y en la adquisición de habilidades necesarias para obligar a que lo malos salga de nuestro mundo para que el bien pueda prosperar y florecer
Veronica Roth
As a teenager, I put a lot of pressure on myself, and a lot of that, for me, was about finding a moral high ground. As I've grown up, I've decided to abandon that because it made me judgmental and also stressed me out.
Veronica Roth
Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it.
Veronica Roth
I have a theory that selflessness and bravery aren't all that different.
Veronica Roth
I forgot my watch. Minutes or hours later, when the panic subsides, that is what I most regret. Not coming here in the first place - that seemed like an obvious choice - but my bare wrist, which makes it impossible for me to know how long I have been sitting in this room. My back aches, which is some indication, but it is not definite enough.
Veronica Roth
Trust me when I tell you, Eaton boy, that resisting is worth doing.
Veronica Roth
Everything - our houses, our clothes, our hairstyles - is meant to help us forget ourselves and to protect us from vanity, greed and envy, which are just forms of selfishness. If we have little, and want for little, and we are all equal, we envy no one.
Veronica Roth
...there is power in self-sacrifice.
Veronica Roth
You don't have to tell me everything right away, but I have to tell you everything right away? Can't you see how stupid that is?
Veronica Roth
Nothing else is alright. But we are. -Tobias
